When I was playing for the reserves, if you got a call-up you got a straight £30. I'd never been paid for football!
I am not taking for granted a call-up to the England squad or making any assumption about my future international career.
The call-up is one of the best feelings you're ever going to feel.
I think the guys who have been on NXT and got to go to 'RAW' or 'SmackDown' got the full experience. That's what I want.
I won the NXT championship as a heel; then the fans grew to respect - not love, respect - me. I was popular because I was seen as the next to get called up.
I waited for a long time for a call-up for Les Bleus, but that call never came.
When guys leave NXT and go to the main roster, those guys are already over.
I wasn't quite sure how a player got to the big leagues. As far as I knew, he was just there one day.
